We can't let the robots write all the poems
On the notion of eternity

We can’t let the robots write all the poems.
What was I saying just one minute ago?
—
Oh, yes.
I don’t want reincarnation to be real
(because facts, and figures).
—
The notion of eternity
Started keeping me up all night
When I was eight.
—
I don’t want reincarnation to be real.
(But of courses of courses of horses of courses, of course,
It is.
It’s the onlinest thing of all.)
—
We know then we forget then forget that we know that we forgot.
But we know.
—
I don’t want eternity to exist.
Forever exists, then the heart will go on,
Bodies, too. All the horror.
Too much muchness, being an eternal being.
—
(Drink me dry,
But don’t let me wake a vampire.)
—
{Cheaky, you}
—
The ever isn’tist of an end.
The never notness of the self.
—
I don’t think I’ve ever said a single thing.
Done a single thing.
I just look around, aghast.
